Description

When it comes to business development, outreach is a hugely important part of your strategy. Over the last few episodes, I’ve shared why warm outreach is so powerful and how the fear of being ‘salesy’ often gets in the way.


In today’s episode, I explain why I will never be the business coach who tells you to do cold outreach. Cold calls, cold LinkedIn DMs, and mass cold emails rarely work for executive coaches selling to organisational clients. Instead, I’ll walk you through why warm outreach is more effective and how it creates trust, momentum, and a more sustainable system for growing your business.


Listen in to hear more about:


✅ The difference between cold outreach and warm outreach
✅ Why cold outreach rarely works in the organisational client context
✅ How warm outreach can lead to higher response, higher conversion, and stronger motivation
✅ The ripple effect warm outreach has on your content strategy and network growth


To make warm outreach easier, I’ve created 30 client generating outreach templates for executive coaches. These message examples are completely free and give you practical ways to start conversations without staring at a blank screen.

I’ll be back next week with more practical ideas for growing your coaching business.
